Lmao funny that you mention that specifically. If my memory serves me right the ancient Chinese were obsessed with snipping men because they believed that if they had no member they wouldn't engage in power struggles, especially those that involve empowering one's own family. Turns out they were fucking wrong and they just turned into a bunch of conspiring power hungry bastards without dicks instead, who would've known. Maybe Trump will get a statue like that one in China that people like to abuse for posterity.
It's the first thing that came to mind when I tried to compare the MAGA influencers to something in history. The Han Dynasty eunuchs who would tell the Han Emperor that "everything is fine, everything is OK, don't listen to those peasants whining about how the floods and the drought are leading them to starve, just give us the money to keep the system going, and we'll make sure everyone kisses your feet." They basically created a bubble around the court and kept the Han Emperor in the dark about the problems happening all over his nation. Which of course, allowed these problems to grow, up to the point where they couldn't be fixed.
The Han Emperors remained under the eunuchs' influence, and that slowly led to the Yellow Turban Rebellion and the Three Kingdoms' War, which ended with the Han Dynasty getting dissolved by the strongest of the Three Kingdoms, Wei, once its ruler got tired of playing the role of a Han vassal.
It's the same thing with Trump. Be it the tariff war fucking over the farmers, or the immigrant raids screwing over the farms, or the open hostility towards NATO that's destroying America's credibility, the MAGA faithful downplayed these things and pretended that all was well. So of course, when Trump is told by his base that all is well and that he's doing the right thing, he won't change course. Not until it's too late. This Epstein case has to be the first time his base openly told him he was wrong; but he's incapable of getting the hint and continues to double-down.
In a just world we'd see this nigger hang.

The Democrats were the ones who said that this Epstein thing was a hoax and that we should move on from it. Trump's side was the side that wanted to release the files-until they didn't, because they probably found some names there that they didn't want to ruin.
Trump expects the world to have amnesia. It's so funny, seeing him like this. His side gave that ridiculous amount of publicity towards Epstein, and now that it's working against him, Trump wants to backtrack, but now the people say in a united voice, from both the Left and the Right: "no backsies!"
